Asylum Earth-- Aftermath: Manhattan Protocol

Asylum Earth's New Look

It's collaboration at its finest. When AI meets my imagination, anything goes, as you can see here. Yes, it's been a while since I posted any updates about my board game, Asylum Earth. Mainly, I haven't had the chance to make any progress with it until I had this brilliant idea. After mulling it over for some time, I finally decided to bring in AI to give me a helping hand, and the rest is history.

That's not to say there are no more challenges because AI produces challenges of its own as it develops your new vision, so in a way, AI is a double-edged sword, but in a good way. In this case, AI has helped me see a finish line that has evaded me for quite some time. 

Here's the new game board as proposed by AI. After some tweaking, it's manageable, and I like its aesthetics and everything that goes with it, e.g., Event Cards, tokens, game play, and so on. So I'm slowly chipping away at these new ideas and integrating them with all my artwork. So far, I've finished the box, top, and bottom, which have mostly stayed the same for the exception of a new sub-title.

So the main difference is the Event Cards and some of the tokens; otherwise, the original game and its characters remain the same. In fact, AI has integrated my artwork nicely.

Final Draft Box

Happy New Year, folks. We made it, and we're on to newer and better things. There's simply no time to waste, so with a little help from AI, I've managed to reimagine and recast Asylum Earth, now also named Aftermath: Manhattan Protocol.

It's amazing how many iterations of this game I've come up with, but as I've always said, as long as it improves the game, anything goes. It's certainly a work in progress, and I love the outcome so far. I've got all new cards, tokens, rules, and a new rulebook. Let's face it, everything has changed except the theme, of course.

You just can't argue with improvements. It's a matter of time again to get everything in place and keep forging ahead to the finish line. 

I've got plenty of new images to post and even more to talk about, but I'll keep things brief since I've got quite a bit of work to do. I'd like to post this new cover and a bit of the new artwork.

I have plenty more to change here on the Blog, so I'll get to it.

Keep the faith, my friends. Remember that winners don't quit. If you believe in yourself and keep reaching for the finish line, you'll get there sooner or later. Nothing lasts forever. Not even hard times.

Semper Fi.
